I have an AM255 in good condition (8/10) all original except the bridge PU (a super 70). I usually play on my AM205. The sound of these two guitars is very close. So I would like to trade my Am 255 with a new or second-hand maple Artist-like hollow body (IBZ preferably, Heritage, Yamaha, etc).
Any ideas of what would be a fair deal?
Thanks for your answer

Since you've included Heritage and Yamaha, I guess your price range is about $1,000 - $1,300US or so? At that level, you cannot go wrong with a Ibz JSM, or Yamaha's semi. I like the Heritage H535 and H555, especially since they now use the 'Plek' system for fret set-ups and HRW pickups.
Check with Buffalo Bros. in Calif. and Wolfe Guitars in FL. for great selection and excellent pricing on Heritage if interested.
Hope that helps. |

Guitartim,
Identifying the right price of an AM255 is not easy. That's why I would prefer a trade. The price list on ICW is a 2002 one. In my country (France) the rare last offers I saw were respectively €2,000 and €1,350. I should probably put it on ebay but I'm not familiar with biddings.
However, thanks for your answer. I completely forgot the JSM model (AS200 dream I suppose). I tried it two times and I don't find the multi-radius neck too bad
